Choose Your Session Style
Each location is carefully chosen to match the feel of your session so you don’t have to guess what will look best.
Whether your family is playful and chaotic, slow and connected, or somewhere in between, there’s a setting that fits you.
Some of my favorite spots
Stunning locations
Golden Field
Best for
Families, maternity, and playful sessions
What it feels like
Open space, warm light, movement, and those soft golden sunsets everyone loves
Why you’d choose it
This is the easiest and most flattering option for most families. Kids can move, explore, and just be themselves while we capture it naturally.
on the water
Best for
Families, maternity, and more relaxed sessions
What it feels like
Calm, organic, and a little adventurous with water, rocks, and natural textures
Good to know
Kids may get a little wet and we’ll move around more during your session, but that’s part of what makes these images feel alive
Small Town
Best for
Seniors, couples, and more polished family sessions
What it feels like
Clean, structured, and timeless with simple backdrops like brick, sidewalks, and storefronts
Why you’d choose it
You want a more styled look without worrying about unpredictable elements like wind, water, or uneven terrain
Want something a little more elevated?
Salado Village
Best for
Seniors, maternity, and family story family sessions
What it feels like
A blend of creek, stone, greenery, and small town charm with a more refined and editorial feel
Good to know
This location involves a bit more walking and travel, but it gives us a wider variety of looks in one session
Planning tips & FAQ
What if I don’t know which location to choose
You don’t have to. Most families don’t. I’ll guide you based on your family, your kids, and the overall feel you want.
What should we wear
Once you book, you’ll receive a full style guide to help you choose outfits that photograph beautifully in your selected location.
What if my kids don’t cooperate
They won’t. And that’s okay. The best photos usually come from the in between moments, not perfect poses.
Can we change locations after booking
Yes, as long as we plan ahead. I’ll help you adjust if needed.
